Miami’s new expressway is now
usable from N- W. 95th Street
and 7th Avenue to Miami Beach,
so I .tried it out this week with
the amazing result that I was
over on the Beach (a distance
roughly speaking, of about 12
miles) in ten minutes flat! It was
similar to riding the Freeways of
California. When it is fully com
pleted it will be a joy to the tra
veling public as it will eliminate
the existing traffic snarls, especi
ally during “rush hours”.
' Because of a bad infection in
his left hand I have been taking
| rry grandson Jimmie to the doc
■ tor’s office. On the occasion of
I our last visit we were highly
amused by a 4-year old little
girl who asked everyone who en
tered the reception room “What’s
your name and why arc you
here.” Her younger brother was
also present. She informed us
that she was 4-years old, and he
was 3%? ? When I told her my
name, she then asked, looking
at Jimmie, “And how old is your
| father ? ” A gentleman sitting op
posite me laughed heartily, and
I remarked; I'll bet that’s the nic
; est compliment you have had in
[ many a year.”
On Thursday, October 26th, a
I
new discount market ■war opened’
with a great fanfare. It Is the
largest of its kind in Miami.
George Raft, the 65-year old re
tired actor was present, abd he
admitted that in all of his act*
ih* career, he had never .’been
“done-in” like he was from the
huge , crowd Bof oldsters and
youngsbr rs that pushed, pressed
ahd shoved t 9 get near hiip to
obtain an autograph! It is not an
1 , overstatement tb say that there
| were nearly 1 y fl million pepple
l who passed through the portals
! of that store on that day. One of
the reasons may lave bei n that (
Jello was priced at 3c a box; %
gal. cartels of fee cream were
.9s; Kleenex; also Heinz Ketchup
I were for sale at 9c each. The
j lines of people waiting to get In
were two and three blocks long,
and there were waiting period of
V» hour or more, as the special
police kept the openings roped off
as the store became too crowded.
There were 14 check-out counters,
and people with their baskets
were behind each and every coun- !
ter to the extent of 26 or more j
a«d the lines never shortened for
nine hours. This opening sale
continued for three days. It was
reported that the cash registers
broke down from the strain.
Had a long telephone visit with
Mrs. SchnUpp on Saturday, and
i learned that she and Legs had re
. visited Cattail for two weeks aor
, were joined for a weekend by
i Linda who is a senior in F, S. U. at
, Tallahassee, and Diane who now
' teaches school in Jacksonville '
Mrs. SchnUpp reported that my
cabin basement walls were in, and
, that the place ooked very nice. She
also mentioned she and Leo had!
thoroughly enjoyed their fall stay
as the coloring of the foliage was ;
, exqlisite. She told of the early'
snow storm, and said it mad
, things look very pretty. I am eag
erly awaiting an opportunity to
see the color slides she had taken.
Understand the William Cains
i went home on the day the Sch
-1 nupps arrived; that the Grass
i mucks also left hurridly. The
i Anderson family wiR remain ;
i longer; as will George Haeger,;
-land the Milldollars (because of
; jan attack of ‘flu’). Miss Knud
■ j sen, Ethel said, is preparing to
.' come south around December Ist
1— and I do hope it will be to my
. house that she is coming. Mrs.
1 Harry Wallace returned to Cat
tail and the Spears arrived at
j their cabin on October 24th.

Mr. arid Mrs. Schnupp were
privileged to witness the skinn

At long last, my house is set
tled again, and I am ready to j
entertain. Already I have had a ;
visitor • from New York (now
gone) and two more are expected
in late December or early Janu
ary. News from my son in Calif
fornia tells that they are in

minute of it. Jeff h a s already

School and Your Child
By: John Corey
Education Department Appalachian State Teachers College
How to Handle the Bully
Retaliation impulses shoot throu-,
gh practically any parent when I
•Junior comes home bloodied or
missing a toy after a fight with
the neighborhood or school.
“bully.” • i
The animal • instinct to protect j
one’s young lies as strong within
the human as in the bear for her
cub.
Some stoic adults, however, feel
they shouldn’t aid offspring in
their battles with bullies but
teach them “to stand up and fight
like a man.” The hope is that
this way put-upon youngsters
won’t grow up to be “sissies” or
“cowards.”
On the other hand, the price (
may be too high. Wh o wants his
youngster to be mauled every
day ? Be sides, do fights really
settle anything in the long run?
Hundreds of wars between na
* tions haven’t.
I A sound answer, to the “bully”
probkm comes from a leading
'educator, Dr. Ernest J. Milner of
! Syracuse University.
$ —Dr. Milner this summer con
! ducted the Student Teaching
' Workshop at Appalachian State
Teachers College, Boon*. N. C
j What parents do depends on
the ages of children involved, ho !
j explains. The bully label that I
( adults attach to some youngst rs J
contains concepts ..that have no i
meaning for the very young child.'
Kiddies between three and five
are naturally aggressive. Dr.
* I Milner r, minds us. They grab
•'j things, take others’ toys, push
• \nd shove, and are strictly “me
“ "Irst.”
But these yoUng children aren’t
eally “mean”, says Dr. Milner.
I' 1 fhry’re undergoing a period of
rowth when the world revolves
•trictly around themselves. Para
... -i,
noUnt to each are his own deeds
and desires.
The ideas of sharing, waiting
turns, gettings along, and owner
ship aren’t born in humans.
Children acquire these skills apd
the appropriate attjtude s in the
growing-up process. Some learn
earlier and more easily than oth
ers Patient adults—parents and
teachers—must help them all.
Don’t pin the “bully’ label on a
* young child, Dr. Milner empha
sizes. Such a term often sticks
long after the reasons for it
lave vanished.
During middle childhood and
adolescence years, however, some
boys and girls jdo behave in ways
tl at the word impli s, the Syra
cuse professor admits. They push
shove, hit, fig! t, attempt to con
quer by “picking on” th e smaller
and younger childnn less able to
defend t v emselves.
If your Junior or Jaaie falls
victim to this type 0 f bully, Dr.
Milner suggests:
D finitely protect your child.
If he’s playing outside and the
“bully” is nearby, find some rea
son to be in t v e vicinity. Your
presenc. may discourage the bully
from bothering him.
Should t’ e bully be already in
action, go to your child’s rescue.
The idea of forcing Junior to
stand up for his own rig! ts and
fight his own battl s may be ask
ing too much 4f the . opponent’s
age and physical differences give
him advantages.
Although mama and papa will
naturally soothe and take care
>f their own child first, they might
also undertake to help the ag
gressor, suggests Dr Milner.
You could talk with the bully
and y o ur child together. Try to
Help them be friends. Discuss the
causes of their fight. Each may
better understand why battles
from Fort Riley, Han,, was ihe
first time a battle group hud
been transported completely by

pany, entered the Army in Nov

' come about.
Along this line, Dr. Milner not
es that the boy or girl who con-
I sistently exhibit bullying . behav
ior telegraphs clear signals that
Ihe needs help. His problem may
! stem from mental or emotional
' disorders. And this, says ”
Syracuse professor, points up
the principle that there are rea
* sons for all behavior.
Is the bully a lonely child, one
without friends who may be
laughed at or ridiculed by others,
or one with whom others won’t
piay?
© ,
One or more of these reasons
could explain the bully’s behavior.
, Dr. Milner offers these sugges
tions to parents:
1. In trying to help your child
understand why the bully acts as
he does, encourage Junior to
make friends with the agressive
youngster, to include him in gam
<s and gang play.
2. Contact schoolofficials and
teachers. Alert them to the bully’s
behavior not for . the purpose of
punishing him, but encourage
thf ir aid in him.
School folks can provide 1 pro
fessional help th a t seeks the root
!of an aggressive boy’s problem.
| Getting at causes of his problem,
| not punishing him, is the only
sensible approach.
